Every person has a different story to tell, and we want to see and hear your story! Through the use of disposable film cameras, we can share our experience and life!

October 21st 2025: In this first session we will introduce the program, with short presentations from our Wellness Youth Mentor, Social Worker and Ability Awareness team members. We will then show our group how to use the cameras and discuss the type of story each of them want to tell.

Between our two sessions, the camera's must be dropped off at 779 Baseline by November 7th  2025 this will ensure that the film is developed and our team can prepare the images into slideshows for each of our storytellers!
